    I was wondering if there was anybody I could speak to about a chevy greenbrier that I found that has been sleeping for some time now. It has been off the road since the very early 80's. When I go to look at it, I would like to know what the problem areas are. Thanks

    I understand the door hinge areas are a likely spot for rust. Any
    place else?

    Is there anything that can be done before the motor is started to prevent any of the built up (30Yr)sludge from doing any damage?

    Its a base model greenbrier with painted bumpers and no trim. Somewhere between 1960-63.
